Roles in Adclear determine what each member of your team can see and do. Every person who joins your organisation is assigned a role, and that role decides which areas of the platform they can access — from creating campaigns to reviewing claims to managing your team. This guide walks through each role, what it’s designed for, and the kinds of tasks it can handle.
If you’re not sure which role someone needs, scroll down to the Choosing the right role section for a quick decision guide.

Choosing the right role

Not sure which role to give someone? Here’s a quick way to decide.
1

Are they external to your organisation?

If they’re an agency partner, freelancer, or influencer, assign External Influencer. They’ll be able to create and submit campaigns without seeing internal data.
2

Do they review submissions for compliance?

If they approve or reject promotions and claims day-to-day, assign Compliance. If they also configure your compliance rules and policies, assign Compliance Admin instead.
3

Do they handle escalated or legal issues?

Assign Legal. This is the only role that can resolve escalations.
4

Are they on the marketing team?

Assign Marketing for individual contributors who build campaigns. Use Marketing Admin for team leads who also manage members and need broader campaign controls.
Roles can be changed at any time. If someone’s responsibilities shift, an admin with the right permissions can update their role from the team management area.

Frequently asked questions

Each member is assigned a single role at a time. If someone needs broader access, change their role rather than creating a second account.
Compliance Admins, Marketing Admins, and Compliance users can manage members and update role assignments. Legal can read and manage members but cannot alter the team list at the same level as admins.
Pick the closest match — usually one that errs on the side of less access. You can always upgrade them later if their day-to-day work requires more permissions.
External Influencers have a deliberately limited view. They can create and submit their own work but don’t have access to internal settings, metrics, or other team members’ data.
